Who We Are

T-REX was born.

Pete came up with a totally new method of constructing post and beam frames. He is one of those unusual individuals who can identify problems, create a solution, and then move the product through engineering and prototype to final product. First it was the T-REX Connector and then, through building structures with the connectors, he developed a set of tools for both accuracy and efficiency.

It wasn't long before Pete asked his daughter, Laurie, to come on board to propel his idea forward. They had been working with each other on and off for over many years, so it was natural to combine their time and energy. As a partner, she brings to Connecticut Post & Beam her marketing skills, organizational drive and great love of people.

T-REX was developed.

2018 marks the fourth year that Pete and Laurie have worked alternately hand-in-hand or remotely. It was the perfect strategy for building a business from ground up. Connecticut Post & Beam evolved into Connext Post & Beam and became a respected company offering a viable alternative to post and beam framing and their connectors have been shipped to almost 40 states in America and four provinces in Canada. T-REX Connectors received patent number US 9,920,531 B1 on March 20, 2018 and additional patents are pending.
